Chris Matthews got heated with Republican congressman Steve Perry on Thursday over the current government funding and debt ceiling fights in Washington. Matthews kept shouting at Perry to say at what other time in American history has the opposition party pushed so hard to repeal a law approved by Congress and the Supreme Court, essentially holding the country hostage. They went back and forth a bit, until Perry got a little too personal with a barb directed at Matthews, at which point Matthews ended the interview and scolded him.

had much to do with it; Krystal Ball et al have always been pretty critical of the GOP and calling them out. But yeah...Chuck Todd is just an idiot.

The ending was great: "You're in bed with the oil industry."
That's when Perry's face dropped. He tried to laugh it off, but that one hurt.
